Leon Vitogiannis

Leon Vitogiannis is establishing himself as one of the most exciting baritones of his generation. After completing degrees at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music with Mr. Andrew Dalton and Dr. David Greco, Leon continues to build an impressive list of stage and concert credits. Leon’s stage credits include; Figaro in Rossini’s The Barber of Seville, Aeneas in Purcell’s Dido and Aeneas, Eisentein in Strauss’ Die Fledermaus, Count Almaviva in Mozart’s The Marriage of Figaro, Leporello in Mozart’s Don Giovanni, and Mr. McC. in Foss’ Introductions and Goodbyes.
His concert appearances include; Requiem (Mozart), Messiah (Handel), Ein Deutsches Requiem (Brahms), Requiem (Fauré), Paulus (Mendelssohn), Crucifixion (Stainer), and the Australian premiere of Requiem for an Angel (Carr). As Leon continues to expand his opera and oratorio repertoire, he also holds Lieder and Art Song to equal importance, focusing on the song cycles of Schubert, Schumann, and Mahler.
Leon held a position as a Young Artist with Pacific Opera Studio in 2023 and 2024, working closely under Co-Artistic Directors, Cheryl Barker AO and Peter Coleman-Wright AO. Most recently, Leon was selected as an Opera Australia Young Artist in their 2025-2027 program.
Among other musical interests, Leon actively engages in the Greek-Australian music scene. Since being appointed as the Musical Director of the Australian Hellenic Choir in 2019, he has conducted a range of choral and orchestral works and programmed concerts that highlight Greek-Australian composers.
